Mornin' y'all! It's really nice outside so I opened the back door for Daphne, and she's been doing speed racer laps from the backyard into the house and back out again. She looks like a happy doggo.
For today's card, I brought out another older stamp set and had some fun with masking and blending brushes, take a look:
HOLY COW I hadn't used Beautiful Day for SIX YEARS!!! Well, I'm glad I brought it out of retirement for today's card. It doesn't show much in the picture but I painted the navy lines on the flower with Wink of Stella for a bit of sparkle. I wanted a big, bold flower for the Inspired By... Challenge:
Isn't that a lovely inspo pic? I always love the combination of pink and navy, and those vases are gorgeous. I paired that with this week's Atlantic Hearts sketch:
I didn't put my dotty embellishments in the same place as on the sketch but hopefully the Challenge Police will let it slide this time. I had a good time yesterday putting this card together, it was so fun to bust out that stamp set again.
Time to finish my tea and then take Miss Daphne for a walk, if she has enough energy after her zoomies this morning. Oh who am I kidding, Daph always has energy for a walk. Cheers!

I love that you used navy for the outline of the bold flower. Wink of Stella is always so difficult to photograph. You've created a beautiful card. Thank you for joining us at AHSC! I hope to see you in the gallery soon. Sue - DT
